Biology

Clamperl is an aquatic Pokémon that makes its home on the seafloor. Its bivalve shell is dark blue with a silver rim along the inner edges. The shell is used to clamp down on prey, as well as for protection. A fully-grown shell will have nicks and scratches all over. Inside of the shell is a fragile, light blue body composed of six spherical extensions with a pink, pearl-like head in the center. There is a circular white patch on each cheek. The pearls produced by this Pokémon amplify psychic power, and may be blue as seen in the anime. When it is close to evolution, Clamperl will become too big to fit inside its shell.
